Re: [mylyn-reviews-dev] Model in gerrit connector bundles

I'll post summarize on to the bug later today what motivated the current design.

 324327: Define a common model for reviews
 https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=324327

On a high level, my sense is that TaskData is not a good match to
store the Gerrit Connector or review content in general. I think we
are best of limiting its use to task list integration and basic task
editor integration. From my experience, EMF offers much more powerful
capabilities (e.g. compare, merge, notifiactions...) and encapsulates
common concerns in the framework such as persistence that you have to
deal with otherwise.
